I really enjoyed this book. Sometimes it's hard to believe it's non-fiction - it's so OUT THERE, especially the thoughts of big, hairy penises.
Mommies Who Drink is hilarious, real life, and down to earth. As the book goes on, Brett becomes more comfortable in motherhood, and her observations on parenthood become more endearing and poignant.
A great baby shower gift for the expantant, yet hip, mother.
